Faith and work movement, heal thyself: Christian distinctiveness starts at home

Last updated on: September 10, 2014 at 1:42 pm   By Chris Armstrong

​This week in the Patheos Public Square, Patheos has selected a few “resident experts” from across ​Patheos ​channels to contribute a short opinion piece about a significant trend or event in religion in America and reflect on its broader impact on society and culture.  ​ This post is part of the Faith and Work Channel’s contribution to that discussion. ​ Daily, human work in the marketplace is the primary way we make culture. In order to make culture Christianly, we need to do our work... Read more

Your “resource of the day” comes courtesy of our friends at the Acton Institute, who have recently released a seven-part film series called For the Life of the World: Letters to the Exiles: Ever wondered what it means to be “in the world but not of it?” For the Life of the World: Letters to the Exiles is a seven-part film series that explores big picture questions, like, “What is our salvation actually FOR?” Join Evan and his friends on a creative... Read more

Three more ways to help the poor

Last updated on: August 25, 2014 at 11:23 am   By Made to Flourish

This is a subject our friends at the Kern Pastors Network blog talk about frequently, and they’ve just put up the final blog in their thought-provoking series on generational poverty (previous posts are at Generational Poverty, Engaging the Culture, Relationships, and Bankrolling Social Capital.)   In this post, pastor Kyle Bushre argues that the ultimate cure for poverty comes only from the grace of God: The socialism popularized by the French Revolution argued that the evil of poverty stemmed from the unequal distribution of wealth and... Read more

Even more business advice from John Wesley

Last updated on: August 20, 2014 at 9:48 pm   By Mission:Work

Over the last few days we’ve been sharing in this space some reflections from John Wesley, founder of the Methodist movement, who was famous for telling his followers to gain, save, and give all they could. Allowing for his eighteenth-century language, he has some good advice about all three in this sermon, “The Use of Money.” First, we looked at his advice on how to earn all you can (ethically!). Then, we considered how to save all you can. Today, we’ll see... Read more

Allowing for his eighteenth-century language, he has some good advice about all three in this sermon, “The Use of Money.” We’ve talked about how to gain all you can–ethically; in this post, we’re excerpting the “save all you can” advice (which may sound harsh to modern ears, but is worth pondering!)  Later we’ll sample... Read more

Another new blog on the Patheos Faith and Work Channel!

Last updated on: August 19, 2014 at 5:45 pm   By Patheos Faith and Work Channel

We’re thrilled here at MISSION:WORK and across the Patheos Faith and Work Channel to welcome a new blog, Oikonomia: Resources on Faith, Work, and Economics from the Acton Institute.  The title comes from the Greek word for “economy”–which meant so much more than simply budgets and stocks in the ancient world; it was the word for how God ordered the universe, and how humans should order their lives in response.  The folks at Oikonomia say: Oikonomia is a project of the... Read more

God and….beer?

Last updated on: August 19, 2014 at 1:58 pm   By Mission:Work

This story comes to us from Paul Sohn, who let us know via our Twitter account (which you should be following. Do it now!) and is based on the book The Search for God and Guinness by Stephen Mansfield .  Did you know that the Guinness family originally were pioneers in treating workers humanely? And that one branch of the family went into the Christian ministry? Let Paul tell it: Arthur Guinness was a man of faith.  Born in 1724 in... Read more
